Hi, Kirk:

My mistake; you are correct, sir. I found this description in the manual entitled:

* SC41-5302-6 iSeries Security Reference for Version 5:*

(The following paragraph appears on page 12 of this manual.)

* Changing to Level 30 from a Lower Level*
When you change to security level 30 from a lower security level, the system
changes all user profiles the next time you perform an IPL. Special authorities that
the user was given at 10 or 20, but would not have at 30 or above, are removed.
Special authorities that the user was given that are not associated with their user
class are not changed. For example, *ALLOBJ special authority is removed from all
user profiles except those with a user class of *SECOFR. See Table 2 on page 11 for
a list of the default special authorities and the differences between level 10 or 20
and the higher security levels.

This manual is available here:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r2/ic2924/books/c4153026.pdf

It has been many years since I actually had to deal with this, around V1R3 or V2R1,
so my memory of the details has obviously faded with time.

All the best,

Mark S. Waterbury

I was pretty sure that after setting QSECURITY from 10/20 to 30 or higher the SYSTEM DID remove *ALLOBJ on the nexzt IPL when it actually changes from 10/20 to 30.
